First Look: Festool's Amazing Dust-Free TSC-55 Cordless Track Saw!

By Rain Noe - March 24, 2014

We headed up to the JLC Live show in Providence last week, so we just had to stop by Festool Connect, the awesome one-day outreach event where the company gives demos of their latest and greatest. As most of you know, Festool is a company with a reputation for unmatched product design—go through their user forums and you'll find a fervent following backing that up, if you don't already have Festool product in your own shop—and they certainly didn't disappoint for 2014.

While we had a hard time capturing video of all of their tools we wanted to show you, thankfully were able to get footage of their wicked TSC-55 cordless track saw, which somehow magically spirits the dust away without being hooked up to a vac! You have to see this thing in action:

Our European readership is in luck, as the tool will be available April 1 on that side of the pond. For us Americans, alas, the U.S. release date—if there's even going to be one—is TBD. We'll keep you posted if we hear anything.
